One trick that worked for me was to dust crickets with the gecko meal powder to get them used to the flavor. Even adult hold-outs took to the meal powder after just a few servings of CGD-dusted crix. I also agree with the person who said to keep feeding them crickets, too. Up to 1 year of age, my geckos still get crix once per week, although my adults are thriving solely on CGD. I believe the youngsters grow better with supplemental crix, and watching them hunt is pure entertainment! I haven't tried the fruit juice trick yet, haven't had to, but watch that the fruit juice isn't just all corn syrup or other empty-calorie sugar water.
